Conflicting reports on Islamic State leader arrested in US operation in north Syria
The US-led coalition has revealed the identity of the Islamic State leader it arrested during an airdrop operation in northern Syria, saying he was a prominent bombmaker. But some Syrian opposition sources say they got the wrong man.
The US military revealed the identity of the Islamic State (IS) leader who was arrested in an airdrop operation in northern Syria June 16.
US officials identified the suspect as Hani Ahmed al-Kurdi, also known as the "Wali of Raqqa," according to The Washington Post.
